I am on hand for marathon advice, injury and recovery, runners workshop with Dame KellyHolmes 2016

I got into therapy work whilst working as a personal trainer and group exercise instructor many years ago. During this time I learnt sports massage and unfortunately for me I tore my hamstring muscle, which to this day I can still remember the pain!! As a result from this I also ended up having knee surgery. I had to completely change my lifestyle and exercise regime. From being completely active and teaching 15 to 20 classes a week to doing nothing was a real struggle. When you have experienced a sporting injury, you know the frustration that comes with it. From this moment I knew that I wanted to use my experience and become a full time therapist and help others with their recovery. Once that decision was made I started working in clinics as a sports massage therapist, in Central London (Barbican and Farringdon) and locally in Walthamstow and gained different qualifications: dry needling and kinesio taping.

I began my journey at Redbridge Sports and Leisure in 2013. Since then I have gained a degree level qualification in acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine, learnt naturopathy (which also includes iridology). I have also become a certified fascial manipulation specialist, which required me learning 3 levels over 2.5 years and then attending an exam in Italy. (At present there are only 2 of us in the UK with this qualification).

As you can see my journey started treating sporting injuries. Now I treat almost anything. And this can be seen from the fascial manipulation and acupuncture work. A few examples: constipation, period problems, kidney stones, pain: joint, muscle, ligament, chronic fatigue, Iron deficiency, pregnancy issues, breathing problems, circulatory and the list goes on and on.

Now you know my background let me tell you a little bit about my goals. I am very passionate about helping anyone that’s in any discomfort. Whether young or old, sporty or sedentary, it doesn’t matter. If there is something that is preventing you from enjoying your life to the full then you need some help. I tend to look at any case, whether challenging or not, through fresh eyes each time. No one is the same and everyone needs to be treated individually.
